Dear Potential Employee,
Are you sick and tired of sitting in class day in and day out? Do you stare out the windows wishing that you were out in the "real world"? Are you tired of dried up spit balls falling on your head? Well, Mystic Job Agency can help you (except for the spit ball situation), only we are coming to your classroom. In order to get out in the "real world," you can't leave school until you are finished, but it is important to explore all possibilities thereafter.
Do you like eating, making, or even smelling food? Jump into the culinary career path. Do you enjoy listening to your friends go on and on about all of their problems while completely ignoring yours? Maybe you'd enjoy a job in psychology. Do you enjoy the thrill of adventure, the adrenaline rush that comes with exploring new places you've never been before and may have only read about in books? Do you find yourself captivated by other cultures and peoples? Perhaps a career in travel is for you!
No matter what career you choose, anything from being President of the United States to flipping burgers at Wendy's is going to require certain knowledge that you are taught in school. Mystic Job Agency will be there to shape you into highly qualified employees for any career you choose.
Knowledge produces power, and power opens up a world of opportunities. Are you ready to explore yours?
And remember: Lifelong Learners Are Lifelong Earners!
Sincerely,
Mystic Job Agency
